Season 77 - Week 4

Day 27 - Palace teams report.

Palace Casuals played their last away match of the season at 10th place, and eventually overcame the home side to register a 3-1 win. Maarten Wiegman became Casuals' first '30 League goals in a season' player* with the first goal, and then provided two assists for the late goals scored by Lukas Lembacker and Angelo Musto.

*since detailed record-keeping started.

Palace Terriers played their third tie against a friend team in their Champions League Final and the quality gap showed, Terriers losing 0-2 in a tightly-contested match. Terriers always looked like getting back into the game after going one down early in the second half, but when Philip McKay transgressed in the penalty box and the spot kick was confidently put away by the opposition, the trophy slipped away.

Houston win and you won't need to worry about Luis Angel, a draw or Luis Angel win and they'd both be a danger, as well as Rochdale...

The shape/outline of your logo makes it look like a chicken; two legs below, the rounded/pear shape just above, the crown acting like a crest and the bird graphic in the middle. :p

I usually get the notifications that the match 'is about to start' when the match is actually approaching half-time (I don't rely on these) - 'the match has finished' messages can appear up to 4 hours after the match has actually finished, if I get them at all...

At least the 'the match against xxxx is on in a few minutes' messages are suitably vague, as they can arrive anything from 15 minutes before kick-off to just before the 'is about to start' message arrives.

That's the c/l added to the cup ;)

Where did that 74th minute goal by Robben come from?

The phantom 70th+ minute goal strikes again... Nordeus really needs to look into this now. I hope a suitably worded missive is on its way to support@Nordeus.

What a sh*t situation - I am absolutely flabbergasted...

Day 27 - Palace Terriers League report.

Palace Terriers hosted 9th place in their final home match of the season, and a double from Niklas Schlaudraff gave them a 2-0 win. Samir Gross racked up his 100th appearance for the Terriers.

10th League title for Celtic 1888, 3rd in row (in combo with CL 3 in row)... It's shame we lost Cup final and passed chance to win back to back triple... It's kinda bad luck for runner-up... He is undefeated so far and he won't win the League...

We did it. We won the trifecta, or as you guys would have it, the treble!

Thanks for your support.

This was truly a magical season with a fairytale ending. It did not end up being a Brothers Grimm story after all.

Pre-season period should extend to at least day 1, that is the next level should be included, especially if promotion has been guaranteed. Signing players on day 28 is usually not appropriate, unless in the case where a team failed promotion.

In fact, the time left in day 28 after the last match should be a resting period. :)

Position in the League: 1st
Cup: 1st

One of my two game accounts from last year was 'revived' at the start of week 2 of this season. At that time, the team was in the middle of the league, with 2W,1D, 2L . The initial aim was to qualify for the Champions League, using a limited budget. After some hard work, the team managed to challenge for the top 2 positions after a week or so. The team remained in 2nd-3rd positions, keeping the pressure on the leading teams, and finally displaced both of them.

The Cup was an easy tournament this time as it included a lot of bot teams.

The 2016 browser version of this game is much better. The 2D system is more useful as compared to the commentaries from the last version. Some past mistakes done last year using the previous version, where at that time it seemed that no tactical or football explanation could be found for poor player performances, loses or draws, were able to be explained with the help of the new browser version and the help of some other software. Users have a better view of what is happening on the pitch. In my opinion, the new training system is much better, and the new way of displaying the players attributes is also helpful. In others words, the 2016 version suits more the tactical type of manager.

It seems that there is also an improvement here on the forum; there is someone (Moi) that is checking the concerns of users, replying and so on.

Atlético Kolkata Day 27-28 Report

Yesterday Kayis, David, Jorge and Klochkov, scored once each. Jorge and David assisted Thiago for his brace. That totals to a 6-0 win against the team that trolled us. After a slump in form, David bounced back with a 9.0 to get the MOM badge. Today at home David had a brace and Pirlo struck once to end the tight season, which had ended yesterday. Once again David had scored a 8.5 to be named MOM. The final standings:http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...7025c9892a.jpg David ended first on the goalscorers list, and Thiago (not shown) is joint 4th with David on the assisters list. Kayis has been the most consistent Atlético Kolkata player:http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...160f1f1ced.jpg

Day 28 - Palace Terriers report.

Palace Terriers went away to 10th place for their last match of the season, and got 2-0 up at the break through Nikolay Radev and Alessio Doratiotto. When Doratiotto scored a third goal early in the second half, the Management decided to play a couple of players who would probably not feature in next season's squad, so striker Brian Horne (5*/65Q) and right-winger Declan McGranaghan (3*/59Q) were brought on to replace Sergi Hernandez and Radev respectively. McGranaghan then decided to make a case for retention for next season with a hat-trick of assists as Samir Gross and Onder Chamoun scored three goals between them in the last 11 minutes of the match. Final score 6-0 to the visitors.

Day 28 - Palace Casuals League report and end-of-season summary.

Palace Casuals played at home to 4th place, and expected a tough match as the visitors were trying to cling on to a Champions League qualification spot. The critical action came in the few minutes either side of half-time, as Maarten Wiegman first volleyed home a corner from Angelo Musto and then converted a penalty after the same player had been hacked down in the box. The visitors pulled one back 10 minutes from time, but it was too little, too late. Worse news was to come for them as the loss had, in combination with other results, pushed them out of the Champions League slots.

Attachment 64937

End-of-season summary.

Palace Casuals started their 33rd season of Top Eleven at Level 29, and in the League, were one of the lower Quality teams, so initially, little was expected of them by the Management. It became clear after the first few matches, however, that some of the higher quality teams were not making the effort expected of them, and the Casuals quickly found themselves at the top of the League and embarking on a 14-match unbeaten run, as part of a record-breaking 22-match unbeaten run in all competitions. As the later part of the season went on, the teams below them were repeatedly taking points off each other, and a 2 point cushion at the mid-point of the season grew to an 18-point lead at the end of the season.

Attachment 64943

In the Cup, Casuals fought their way past several higher Level teams before coming up against a Goliath team in the Final, and ended Runner-up.

Palace Terriers End-of-Season summary.

Palace Terriers started their 10th season at Level 10, and were the joint second highest Quality team in the League. Having come up against, and lost to, the highest quality team early on in the season, Terriers then went on a record-breaking 32-match unbeaten run, including record-breaking 19 consecutive wins, in all competitions, keeping the pressure on the League leader, but they were very difficult to catch. In the end, Terriers only finished three points adrift in the Runner-up spot, thanks to the leader losing his unbeaten League record on the last match of the season.

In the Champions League, Terriers posted their third 100% Group stage in four seasons, and then progressed through to the Final, where they met their match and ended up Runner-up.

Attachment 64953

In the Cup, Terriers made steady progression through the rounds, posting good wins over higher-level teams, including one Level 14 outfit that just capitulated in the 2nd Leg after Terriers got a creditable draw in the away leg. The Semi-Final opponent proved to be a higer-level team too far, and Terriers bowed out after two 0-1 legs.

Attachment 64954

So after their League/Champions League double last season, Terriers end this season with two seconds and a third place.

Season 10 at level 8. A season where I decided to spend less time on the game in the beginning and wasn't able to manage my team in the final week at all. But I've kept coming back to it, so I guess that's a good sign.

Unexpectedly won my 2nd cup. I wasn't there to do anything at all after the first leg in semi-final, but the team managed without me. :o

Attachment 64959

Not being able to manage and especially not training does seem to have an influence. Even after the cup final I won, AM wasn't happy.

Attachment 64961

League didn't go as well. In the end I finished 6th, missing CL spot for next season on goal difference. Striker Ronchi scored twice in our last game to become top scorer (shared). Notable is first spot in top assists for AMC/AMR Bourgeois. I can't remember having won that title before. Bourgeois and AML Demir were top rated.

Attachment 64962

Most goals: Ronchi, Bourgeois (25), Demir (19), Caurant (DL, 8)
Most assists: Bourgeois (15), Ronchi (10), Khalifa (MC, 8)
Most MOM's: Bourgeois, Demir (6), Ronchi (5)

So. Last day. A win will secure me the championship.1-1...

A day of drama as our top 4 status was under threat but one result went for us and one against but in the end we made a tough match look easy once we went attacking and battered them

We appeared to be a cup team this season with our double cup triumph so with a top 4 finish also it can be considered a very successful season
